“We learned that Googan fans would not be interested in specs just for the sake of marketing – like adding extra bearings simply to say there are more of them. Instead, we focused on durability and creating a dependable reel for Googan fans and avid anglers. Strong build and quality components – that’s where we invested in these reels.” said Gabe Prero, Head of Design at Catch Co.
